AFTERNOON SESSION.
A Calabrian Divorce.

Probably for the first time in the history
of the Italian colony of Providence, r. l.,
an old Calabrian custom was carried out
last evening with all the solemnity with
which the peasantry of that section OF
Italy attach to the customs of their fore
fathers.
Just between Manton and Dyervillle
lives Giuseppe Carotta, y years of age, a
laborer, who has been in this country about
five years Just previous to his departure
from Italy, Carotta married young girl
named Annunziata Purpera, whom he had
known since childhood. During their res
idence in this country Carotta and his
wife lived happily together until about
one month ago, when the husband began
to suspect that his wife was not true to her
marriage VOWS. He kept close watch,
and finally his suspicious were verified be-
yond doubt Instead of seeking the man
who had dishonored him with razor or
knife, Carotta formally notified the rela-
tives of his wife-they having followed
her to this country-of Che circumstances,
and invited them to family council.
The council took place last evening at
Carotta's residence, and there were present
his two brothers and one cousin, his wifes
father and mother and her two brothers,
besides two intimate friends of the family
to act as arbitrator. When all were as
sembled the wife was summoned and ques-
toned by her father upon the statements
made by her husband She began to cry.
and confessed that her conduct had not
been that of true and loving wife, but
denied having committed any criminal act.
The husband in the meantime said moth
ing, and the rest of the persons present
were equally silent. After the wife had
told her story she retired, and the hus-
band and his brothers formally requested
the father to take back his daughter, as,
by her own confession, she was not worthy
longer to remain with her husband. The
decision being sustained by the arbitrators,
the unhappy father made no objections,
and a few minutes later the once-happy
wife left her husbands house, accompanied
by her relatives, with whom she will
henceforth live.
This custom, though very common in
the south of Italy, is rarely practiced
abroad, yet none of the Calabrian peasants
would think of contesting the legality of
such a family council and divorce proceed
ings, provided there was evidence of
wrong-doing upon the part of a wife,

THE USES OF LEMoNs.-Lemons are
one of the most useful fruits in our do
nestle economy. Lemonade is not only a
luxury, but exceedingly wholesome 1t is
good temperance drink. The juice OF
half lemon in glass of water, without
sugar, will frequently cure a sick headache
If the hands be stained, there is nothing
that will remove the stain better than a
lemon or lemon and salt After the
juice has been squeezed from the lemon
the refuse can be used for that purpose.
Lemon juice and sugar, mixed very thick,
is useful to remove coughs and sore throat.
1t must be very acid, as well as sweet.
Lemon juice is also very good remedy
for rheumatism and the so-called bilious
ness of spring. In the latter case the
juice should be taken before breakfast.

The Newport Girl A-DrIvIng.


Bellevue avenue in the morning is quite
another place from Bellevue avenue in the
afternoon. In the early hours of the day it
abounds with pretty girls; they are pretty in
their fresh morning costumes, fitting here
and there, buying the little odds and ends of
which woman is in perpetual need. What
do these 'buds" want2 I asked the other
day. ''They drive up and down in their or
nate carts, looking like peripatetic butter
flies; they pause for an instant here, they
futter out there, they light in shop door
and reappear in second, get in their ve-
hicles, the tiger jumps on behind and off
they go, heaven knows where" ''It is
part of the days parade" was the reply to
nv question. A few hours later these
same divine youngsters will be driving
again through the avenue like circus riders,
attired in even more bewildering toilets
than those of the morning. The Newport
girl wears brilliant carmine gown of some
soft silken fabric and little cap of the
same material on her head, and she sits
bolt upright like q ramrod, with the reins
held within six inches of her sweet little
chin, and away she goes, with tiny,
white breeched tiger holding on for dear
life behind the high Tcart. There must
be something in Newport air that lends
courage to the most tinid social flower. 1
have yet to see a girl who is afraid to drive
a stylish turnout. Even the fve-year-old
infant cries for a donkey-cart, and what is
more gets it. I saw one of these infantile
turnouts yesterday, and it is no exaggera~
ton to aay the white-aproned nurse proba-
bly, put the whole affair in her pocket
when Master Threestars grew weary of this
pastime OF driving over the big avenue.
